This week, the Mode/Switchers straw-poll each other on this question: how many days do you want to work in office?
Let’s just say that our Millennial, our Boomer, & our Xers aren’t in perfect alignment.
But here’s what we are clear on on: despite the massive push for Returning to Office, workplaces cannot give way to nostalgia for pre-2020 conditions.
(Look, CEO, the office before COVID wasn’t as awesome as you seem to think in 2024!)
The fact that something like 79% of CEOs expect an RTO within 3 yrs raises a lot of questions for this week’s podcast:
What should office culture become within the next few years?
What values should shape the workplace, as so many of us sidle back in?
How can organizations balance productivity and flexibility in a new era of work?
Ken, LaShone, David, Emily, and I explore the evolutions of office culture. You'll hear intergenerational strategies for fostering connection in a distributed workforce. We tell pained stories. We ask hard questions. And we try to keep the human stuff first.
This week’s Spell-It-Out feature addresses the phenomenon of Rage Applying. Are you a rage applicant? Tune in to find out.
